This school is so garbage. Teachers give me an attitude for no reason at all. I would not recommend this at all.

Poor quality, poor ethics, thus school needs a total revamp.

This school made it impossible to learn during the short time I was there. The only good thing about the school, was the dances, and the teachers Mrs. Parlimans Character Ed class, and Mrs. Rauths math class. I was bullied during the time I was there, and nothing happened to the people at fault. I am so glad that I ended up moving.

This school caters to friends ofthe principals and coaches. The really good kids with talent on sports or other competitive activities get bullied or left behind that's why their are so many bullies in the school. That's also why our teams stink, because they won't fix it.

I love this school!! My daughter is taking Japanese and loves it! There is no other school around doing this. What an opportunity to learn a little about another language and culture while in middle school! If your child is motivated the programs there are abundant!! There is no other public school in Ocean County that has their own Teachers offering tutoring to their students after school. This one does!

I am Currently a 7th grader at CRMS and i really like it. The teachers are all wonderful and actually care about your education. They are also so nice, for the most part. There is a wide variety of after school activities and there are a lot of in school activities too. I have not witnessed any bullying or drugs which surprises me because i have heard many bad things about this school. The school itself is very easy to figure out and new students will not have a problem. The extra rooms like the library, computer lab, etc are all so nice and a great addition to the school. i highly suggest having your kids come to Central Regional Middle School.

Best group of caring teachers around. I am proud to send my kids there. Lets face it, most kids in Middle School hate it, but my kids enjoy CRMS most days!

I went to Central a long time ago and now teach here. I have to say that the staff is more than welcoming, friendly and cooperative. Programs, events and sports keep our students occupied and the administration, guidance and CST really have a passion for what they do. It shows in how much they care for their students that they want to see them succeed and grow. I wouldn't want to be a part of any other school district.

I am currently attending this school. Ugh, it's horrible! People are always finding ways to get in trouble. The gym teachers are terrible harsh , One of the math teachers BARELY speak English properly, let alone can teach math. It is WAY too over-crowded to be a middle school because everyone is getting held back. I'm glad i made it through my first year here and i will not get left behind. No matter how horrible the teachers are and the students. To wrap everything up in a simple sentence or two, This school is Dreadful. With the way my classmates act here, I have no hope for the up and coming generation.

I can't say this is a great school. It is a marginal school at best. With the tax dollars we pay in Berekeley Township; I would hope we could do better. The good teachers are hard to find and the marginal teachers are in abundance! Most classes are so large that the average child gets lost. This school caters to the academically advanced and challenged. Bullying in the hallways between classes is rampant and goes unchecked by the teachers monitoring. Very disappointed as my children came from H&M Potter and BTES which are both great Berkeley elementary schools. The Central Regional School system needs help!
